Chapter 62 Face

Late at night, the flowery shirt, who claimed to be a brother of life and death with Li Xing, was taken back to the police station. Immediately afterward, Wang Daolin ordered his officers to start arresting people in the Zha Nan district. Overnight, more than twenty indirect "involved personnel" were arrested and summoned, and all of these people were "employees" of the Changqing Company.

Did Wang Daolin dare to order the arrest of Changqing Company people because the silly flowery shirt had confessed?

Actually, it wasn't that at all. In fact, after being sent to the police station, the flowery shirt had already realized that these people were not colleagues of Li Xing, so he chose to resist interrogation and refused to confess any details of the case. But this approach was not very effective.

Wang Daolin didn't need the flowery shirt's confession at all, because his accomplices numbered more than a dozen, and all of them were lackeys kept by Changqing Company. These people usually relied on Li Xing's protection, and they were very ostentatious in their actions. As long as the police station wanted to investigate, they would definitely be full of problems.

Wang Daolin's purpose in doing this was very simple, which was to put pressure on Li Xing and Changqing Company, using the shooting case, the smashing and arson case, and the serious injury to the worker as an excuse to make a fuss. First detain people, then interrogate them, and he was sure to be right.

…

After the flowery shirt and a group of lackeys and Changqing Company people were arrested one after another, Li Xing had already heard the news inside the police station. He called Wang Daolin again at more than three o'clock in the morning, but the other party still didn't answer, and openly hung up the phone.

Li Xing was very anxious, and even heard at one point that the flowery shirt had already confessed and told Wang Daolin's people that they had torn their pants together.

This news directly made Li Xing's endocrine system go out of whack. He didn't sleep all night, and went to the office at more than seven o'clock the next morning, wanting to see Wang Daolin. But the officer under him said that Wang Daolin was going out to investigate a case during the day and would not come to the office at all.

Without communication, there was no way to solve the problem. Li Xing was finally forced to find a deputy director of the Longcheng Police Station to come forward and coordinate.

…

Around twelve noon, Wang Daolin's police car stopped in front of a teahouse. He got out of the car alone and walked into a private room on the third floor.

Inside the room, a fat man in his fifties was sitting on a tatami mat, drinking tea, and waving at Wang Daolin: "Come on, Lao Wang, sit down!"

Wang Daolin took off his shoes, bent down and sat on the tatami mat: "Director Guo, why are you so free today?"

"There are no outsiders here, let's talk frankly." Deputy Director Guo took the initiative to fill Wang Daolin's teacup, pushed the teacup over and said: "Li Xing is looking for me."

Wang Daolin smiled and said nothing.

"Hehe, Lao Wang, do you really want to have such a stiff relationship with Li Xing?" Deputy Director Guo didn't talk about the matter, but asked vaguely.

"If I were a little taller, the three shots at the Cantonese restaurant last night would have blown my brains out." Wang Daolin paused and replied: "Director Guo, these people from Changqing Company are doing things too recklessly. Even if I don't pursue responsibility, just based on this shooting case, our police station has to investigate it thoroughly!"

"Li Xing said that there was a misunderstanding in this matter."

"What misunderstanding? Wasn't it done by Lu Feng? Did I do it, or did Su Tiannan do it?" Wang Daolin asked rhetorically.

Director Guo was silent.

"Su Tiannan was shot in the abdomen, I saw it with my own eyes, Director Guo!" Wang Daolin continued to add: "He is just quibbling. He thought I didn't dare to touch Changqing before, but now that the matter is serious, he wants me to settle things down. Why?"

"Li Xing has the Fuzhou Chamber of Commerce behind him, and companies like Changqing Gang support him. My personal suggestion is that you should give him some face and not make things too ugly."

"Director Guo, since we are talking about the issue of face, then I would also like to ask, Su Lao Er and I are comrades-in-arms. Does Lu Feng know this? Does Li Hongze know this? Does Li Xing know this?" Wang Daolin tapped the table lightly with his finger: "They know it, but they still tried to kill the Su family. Did he give me face? Did they even say hello to me? Before, I wanted Su Tiannan to meet his father, but the anti-smuggling department refused me. Do I have face?"

Deputy Director Guo was silent again.

The room was quiet. After the two were deadlocked for a while, Deputy Director Guo took a sip of tea and said, "Then how about this, give me some face, Lao Wang."

"How to give it, Director Guo?" Wang Daolin asked with a smile, neither humble nor arrogant.

"Let the people below talk about it. It's best if they can reach an agreement. If they can't reach an agreement... I won't care." Deputy Director Guo said bluntly: "Before the talk, the case will be limited to the arrested lackeys, okay?"

Wang Daolin thought for a while, picked up the teacup and replied: "Okay, since you said so, I will definitely give you face. The rest depends on what Changqing does."

"Hehe, thank you, Lao Wang!"

"You are always the leader." Wang Daolin flattered him.

…

Inside the Zha Nan District People's Hospital.

Su Tianyu was sitting on a chair, fiddling with his mobile phone.

Next to the hospital bed, Su Tianbei whispered to his elder brother: "Did you take my gun?"

"What gun?" Su Tiannan was dumbfounded.

"My gun hidden in the car is gone. Tianyu and I analyzed it and it's only possible that you stole it." Su Tianbei said very seriously: "You were afraid that I would cause trouble with the gun, so you secretly hid it?"

"Are you sick?"

"Did you take it? Tell me the truth!" Su Tianbei asked urgently: "I didn't sleep all night because of this."

"……!" Su Tiannan looked at him speechlessly, and after a long silence, he replied: "With your IQ, you should try not to play with Xiao Yu in the future, otherwise he will sell you out and you won't even know it."

"What do you mean? What do you mean? Explain it clearly!" Su Tianbei asked cutely.

"Don't talk to me, my head hurts when I see you."

"……!"

While the two brothers were arguing, the real man Bai Hongbo suddenly walked in: "Oh, Tiannan, are you feeling better?"

"Hehe, Brother Bai is here." Su Tiannan supported the bed with his hand and sat up a little.

"It's okay, you lie down, I'm here to give you some good news." Bai Hongbo grinned and said: "A friend from the Municipal Management Committee called me and said that some leaders at the top are very dissatisfied with Changqing Company's recent practices, and we can look for relationships."

Su Tiannan was stunned: "What relationship?"

"My friend said that a new leader has come to the Management Committee, mainly responsible for the construction of the future Longcheng rural sanitation system, named Yu Jinrong. This person took the lead in criticizing some of the recent chaos in the Zha Nan district at the Management Committee's regular meeting today, and made it clear that... Changqing Company's monopolistic practices have seriously affected the reputation of the Management Committee, and even labeled sanitation workers with black marks by the people." Bai Hongbo said with a smile: "My friend means that we four companies should go and meet this Yu Jinrong, after all, his demands are the same as ours in some respects."

Su Tiannan was very happy to hear this: "This is a good thing, we must meet him! I'll go with you."

"You're injured, so don't go." Su Tianbei said with a smile: "Liu Zi and I can go."

"Be sure to negotiate well." Su Tiannan instructed.

"Understood!"

After everyone chatted for a while, Su Tianyu, Su Tianbei, Bai Hongbo and others left the hospital and went to Longkou District, preparing to meet Yu Jinrong under the introduction of someone.

…

Afternoon.

Inside cell 403 of the criminal detention center of the police station, an old man with a thin body and a bald head was boredly reading a pure love action novel.

Diagonally opposite, a newly arrived prisoner was being assessed by the prisoner boss in the room: "What did you come in for?"

"Smashing the garbage plant." The newly arrived prisoner was none other than the flowery shirt.

"What's there to smash in a garbage plant? A beggar gang infighting?" The prisoner boss was very humorous: "Which area did you do it in?"

"The Su family's garbage plant in Zha Nan."

As soon as he finished speaking, the bald old man on the opposite side was stunned: "What did you say? Whose garbage plant?"

"The Su family's in Zha Nan! What's wrong? Do you know them?" The flowery shirt replied in a tigerish manner.

"Bang!"

The bald old man flew up and kicked the flowery shirt directly in the face: "Everyone in the room who knows martial arts, train him for me!"
